Baby, It Was Hot Outside

Blues sojourn at Harford today proved profitable. In 95 degrees, we survived the tropical ordeal with profuse infusion of electrolytes. Game one saw Blue stave off Harford 12-10. Game two was a close contest until Iron Mike came to the plate with two out and two on. Mike provided a timely opposite field hit to spark our rally in distancing ourselves. End result was Blue 12 Harford 6. Given the dead balls and heavy air, Blue relied on many timely strings of singles and doubles to capture the victories. One other item of note was John's pursuit of a pop foul while being lead to the ball by the umpire (John-next time just jump on his back).
Harford displayed respect for our outfield arms as they refrained from attempting to take the extra base. They, as well, were both impressed and discouraged by our five double plays (23.8095% of today's outs). Our long return trip in Larry's carriage allowed me to ponder the comraderie we share, especially the docile nature of one cabin mate. Now, let's get up to spread our lead over Glenelg on Monday.
